The appointment of male prin-
cipals in the colored schools, un-
married, is having a bad effect. It
is becoming so that is is dangerous
for females to teach, as we'll as fe-
male pupils to have men appoint
ed in the public schools over fe-
males. The resignation of lady
teacher has been rendered to the
school board and accepted. The
circumstances are, that a certain
male principal in one of the school
divisions, has been charged with
running the character of one of the
finest teachers in the colored public
schools, This lady has been teach
ing in the 9TH school division for
a number of years and comes from
one of the Oldest and most respect
ed families in this city. 1t is said
that there has been a seeming in
timacy existing between the lady
and the male principal. 1t is stat
ed that she would remain back in
the school at unreasonable hours,
so much so, that the suspicious of
her friends became aroused. This
intimacy has resulted in the lady
about to become a mother. A trus-
tee says that special c )mmittee has
been appointed by the school board
to investigate the charges. The lady
has been summoned and the inves-
tigation will take place at once. If
the brother OF this lady has, any
manhood, he will see that his sis
ters honor is sustained. He
is in duty bound to make the cul.
prit make the amend honorable.
The full particulars will be pub
lished after the investigation. The
BEE would suggest that unless
more male principals of schools are
married, or appointed to teach
males only, they should not be al
lowed in the public schools.
